He sat in an inconspicuous tavern, pinching his wine cup, slowly sipping the drink.
The wine descended his throat, devoid of any remarkable taste of fine alcohol.
After all, it was merely homemade wine brewed by the tavern keeper.
But it had a simple, homely flavor, which was exactly why Xue Dufu quite liked it.
A moment later, a figure wearing a drooping bamboo hat, wrapped in a black robe, and donning a black iron mask, sat down opposite Xue Dufu.
"Nine Decays of Heavenly Man."
"Hunting God is the calamity."
The two of them asked and answered.
Thus confirming their identities.
Xue Dufu did not pour wine for the newcomer, continuing to serve himself.
"The Young Prince invites a Great Grandmaster for a liaison, I wonder what assassination mission you have to issue?"
"That is how the Hunting God Pavilion operates, even if you are the target, you still have the right to issue assassination missions, as long as you pay enough," the figure in the black robe said with a smile.
